Friday is my chore day so I was using DAKboard all day to track my todo list. Later in the day the screen was black, something I haven't seen since getting it. I instantly assumed I fried the tablet by having it run 24/7 plugged in for the past 10 days. I took it of the dock and couldn't get it to boot on. I plugged it into the stock charger and after a few minutes it finally showed 0 battery remaining. I got it charged back up some and it turned on just fine. Now I have questions.

Why was it dead? Did it come loose from the dock?Does the dock charge too slowly and over the course of a week it finally died? Is it the plug? If the dock is the problem, it must lose about 10% of charge a day. Can I turn down the brightness and be fine?

I'll be tracking the battery % over night and see what happens. 80% now.

Never. I created an album just for Dak and connected to it. Maybe like 4 ever when I opened the app the background was black, but I just had to reopen it and the background was back. I've never had it work and then randomly stop on it's on.

Yeah I usually have to refresh the browser 4-5 times to get it working. But it doesn't go out once it's on i suppose

It was working fine for over a week, but now it only lasts 1-2 days. Since it is always plugged in I can't get battery usage data. I guess I could run Dak without a charger at all for a few hours and check usage.
